System Connections
IP camera can be connected in either 1 to 1 connection where one camera i s connected to one PC cli ent or a
decoder sy stem or 1 to many c onnections where one sy stem can be connec ted t o sev er al PC s and decoder
syste ms. (vi deo server can work as a video decoder which takes the data f r om a v i deo server or IP camera,
decodes and outputs analog video.)
Topology
Generally, I P camera and PC or a decoder is connected in 1-to- 1 m ode or 1-to m any conguration.
l 1:1 Connection .
One cam era is installed at a site where v ideo images are transmitted. A PC or a decoder is i nstalled at a
central location to receive and view the video images on an analog monitor. Audio and serial data are
transferred in either direction.
l 1:N Connection .

8/55
In this conguration, a site can be monitored from many remote central locations. Maximum connections
would be limited by network bandwidth connection. Functionally, the VMS (Video Management System)
software provided can replace the decoder.
Multicast Mode
If the network supports multi c a st i ng, a large num ber of decoder s c an be used to receive video eec t ively from
a camera using a single streaming of video and audio. However, multicast mode is possible only when
network environment supports multicast.
Relay
Video and audio data can be retransmitted from a center to another center. T he arrangement is u seful when
the network bandwidth to the site is limited while there are more than one center want to monitor the site.
VMS ( Video Management System)
VMS (Video Management System) is a Window-based remote monitoring program in order to monitor or
control video, audio, and ev ents in real time from several IP cameras or video servers. Please refer to the
VMS User Manual for more in detail.

2. Installation
Connecting Network (LAN)
l Connect the power adaptor to IP camera
l Connect network cable to ethernet port
l To display video through composite port, after connecting each port to a monitor, set preview option “ON”
on the web-viewer page.
Connecting Audio
Audio is full-duplex. It is possible to set the mode as Tx-onl y, Rx-only or Tx-Rx.
l Connect audio input and output ports to audio devices accordingly.
l The Audi o si gnal required i s li ne level , so audio equipment wit h an am p, mi xe r or other
ampl i er should
be used.
Connecting Serial Ports
RS-485 of IP camera can be connected to ex ternal equipment such as PT receiver etc. PC client can send PT
commands to the ex ter nal equipment via the serial port.
When a decoder system instead of PC client is connected to IP camera, the serial port and that of the decoder
system works in pass-through mode. That is, data from one port is delivered to the other port, vice versa
Connecting Sensor and Alarm
Connect sensor and alarm dev ic es to cor r esponding t er m inals accordingly.
Connecting Power
After conrming the power source, connect power adaptor and connect the 12VDC connector to the IP
